It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 1112: You don't have a fever? Why are you talking nonsense?
To be honest, Chen Fei lost interest in martial arts movies a long time ago.

Especially with the emergence of science fiction, fantasy, fairy tales and other themes, martial arts have long been eliminated and relegated to the corners.

If Xu Ke and Yuan Heping hadn't specially invited him to watch this movie "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia", he would never have gone to see it.

Everyone has his own martial arts dream in his heart, and he wants to preserve his martial arts dream and not let it be polluted by the outside world.

But now, I am afraid it will be stained with a little dust...

As he expected, this martial arts film jointly created by Xu Ke and Yuan Heping only highlighted the 3D effects and special effects scenes, while the plot was rather awkward.

Looking at the whole story, the plot of the whole movie can be summed up in one sentence: "Chinese martial arts vs. aliens!"

What made him speechless was that all the characters in the film seemed to be just puppets of the plot rather than flesh-and-blood individuals.

Each of their reactions and actions does not stem from their own personalities and internal logic, but is done entirely to advance the development of the plot.

The character changes of various characters seem very inexplicable, making it very difficult for the audience to resonate emotionally...

Many audiences who came to watch the movie were looking forward to the powerful combination of Yuan Heping and Xu Ke to bring an audio-visual feast, but they did not expect to encounter such a big Waterloo in the plot!

Two technical masters who are familiar with special effects technology and martial arts movements came up with a terrible script, which is like going to Northeast China and eating a plate of dried tofu with hot peppers that looks delicious but the taste is hard to describe.

After the film ended, facing the expectant gazes of Xu Ke and Yuan Heping, Chen Fei sighed and expressed his viewing experience as obscurely as possible:
"The fighting scenes are very exciting and the special effects are pretty cool, but the actions of all the characters in the play lack a certain logical support..."

Hearing this, the two looked at each other and were speechless for a moment.

Chen Fei did not attend the subsequent premiere thank-you banquet. After making up an excuse, he left with Liu Yifei.

As soon as we got on the bus, Miss Liu started muttering, "At the beginning of the movie, I thought it was tomato pasta made by a Michelin restaurant, but when I saw the pot of red soup that fell from the sky at the end, I realized it was Chongqing noodles!"

Chen Fei couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahaha, your metaphor is quite interesting."

Liu Yifei shrugged: "Personally, I feel that this movie won't do very well at the box office."

Fade Chen nodded slightly: "I think so too."

Film is a comprehensive art form. Special effects and fighting can certainly attract the audience's attention, but a good story is the foundation of a film.

Although "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia" has demonstrated a certain level in terms of technology, due to its weak plot, it is unlikely to gain recognition and favor from the audience after its release.

Chen Fei admitted that Xu Ke was a good director, and also recognized Yuan Baye's martial arts guidance ability.

But he really couldn't agree with the two's screenwriting and story writing level.

……

After a night, it was August 12nd.

After the premiere, "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia" started to be screened on a small scale.

The major cinema chains were quite considerate and gave 3% of the comprehensive screening schedule, in order to test the effectiveness of the film and decide whether or not to give it a high screening schedule on the day of its official release.

Unfortunately, "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia" turned out to be just as Chen Fei expected... a failure!

"I really want to know why Zhou Dongyu slapped Dapeng 69 times. What's the meaning? Then she defeated the two big bosses by herself. The others were just for show. It seems there's nothing wrong with removing them, right? Why not just remove them?"

"Today's stars don't have the body and skills to shoot action scenes, so they can only force Laoguai and Baye to transform into visual effects masters. Then the protagonists just come out and pose, make a few simple movements, and the rest is left to the special effects monsters. Times have really changed!"

"I understand Xiang Zuo playing the male lead, after all he's rich, but who is supporting Da Peng so much? He couldn't have slept with anyone, right? Why can he be the male lead in a movie he didn't direct, and make Ni Ni and Zhou Dongyu fight over him?"

"..."

If there are many people who are happy about the failure of "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia", then Feng Xiaogang must be among them.

He was originally a little worried that this movie would have an impact on "Youth".

But now it seems that I was just overthinking it.

"Let's communicate with the theater chain. After the premiere on December 12, we will also start the advance screening plan and try to build up word of mouth first. This way, after the official release, the box office will ferment faster."

Listening to Feng Xiaogang's request, Ye Ning nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

After watching him leave, Feng Xiaogang went to take another look at yesterday's preview of "The Thousand Faces of Dunjia" and couldn't help but laugh happily.

Douban score 4.7?

With this achievement, they dare to challenge "Youth"? It's just wishful thinking! It's a fantasy!

But soon he stopped laughing.

Because the latest day's box office results of "Dying to Survive" were also announced by the media.

"On its fourth day of release, the reality-themed film "Dying to Survive" directed by Chen Fei grossed 4 million yuan at the box office.

As of now, the film's total box office revenue has reached RMB 15.79 billion, firmly ranking No. 1 in this year's Lunar New Year box office performance rankings! "

After four days of release, the box office has accumulated 4 billion yuan, and the single-day box office has soared from 15.79 million yuan to 3 million yuan...

Looking at these data, Feng Xiaogang began to take a deep breath.

He even couldn't help but fantasize about how great it would be if he could achieve such box office results one day!

Unfortunately, as of now, this scenario can only be realized in dreams and has never happened in reality.

……

On the 5th, 6th and 7th, Chen Fei was running back and forth between home and the company.

By noon on the 7th, he had finally finished all the company's year-end affairs, documents, etc.

In the afternoon, he accompanied Liu Yifei out shopping and bought her a lot of her favorite snacks.

Then at night, he started packing his suitcase.

"Aren't you going to attend the premiere of Youth tomorrow morning?"

Liu Yifei sat next to Chen Fei holding a bowl of strawberries, watching him pack his luggage and asking curiously.

"No, I have a 9am flight tomorrow morning. If I go to the premiere, I'll have to ask the crew to re-apply for a flight route. It's too much trouble."

"Oh fine."

Fade Chen paused for a moment, turned his head and looked at her curiously: "Are you going to participate?"

"I'm not going. I don't want to go alone."

"Hey, hey, hey! Can you two pay attention to me? I am also a human being! I am not air! And! Liu Qianqian! Who said you are alone? If you want to go, I can accompany you!"

Shu Chang, who had been sitting on the bed, grumbled in dissatisfaction while trying to join in the conversation. These two were married, yet they were still showing off their love all day long. It was so disgusting that she almost couldn't eat anymore!

In fact, she also has her own house in the capital, but when she returns home she is alone and has no other family members, so she doesn't want to go back to live there at all.

Fortunately, Chen Fei had always reserved a bedroom for her, so she usually came back here directly after work.

Moreover, Liu Xiaoli had always treated her as her own daughter and had never disliked her, so she lived there with a clear conscience.

I just ate too much dog food and always felt bloated...

"Oh, you're still here. I thought you went to bed."

"..."

Listening to what her best friend said, Shu Chang felt like crying but had no tears.

"Sure enough, once you have a lover, you forget your friends. Woohoo, you forget your loyalty for the sake of beauty! You are easily tempted by other things..."

"If you're going crazy, stay away from me and don't kick me."

Chen Fei stabbed Shu Chang hard, causing him to collapse on the bed. He was unable to say anything for a long time.

On this side, the two of them were getting close again.

"Then remember to come back to see me as soon as you finish your work."

"Yeah, I will. I'll be back as soon as I finish work. If you miss me, just call me on video. I'll chat with you as soon as I'm free."

Shu Chang: “…”

Half an hour later, Fade Chen had packed his luggage.

It was getting dark outside the window and it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening.

Chen Fei was just about to tell Shu Chang to get out of here quickly, as he wanted to hug the sweet-smelling Miss Liu to sleep.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei opened her mouth directly to her bestie: "Changchang? How about you stay tonight? How about staying and being a maid? The bed is big enough, and it won't be crowded for three people to sleep."

Chen Fei: "???"

Shu Chang: “???”

After being stunned for a long time, Shu Chang, who was lying on the bed like crazy, jumped up directly. His face turned as red as a monkey's butt!

"Liu Yifei! You...what are you talking about!"

"I don't mind." Miss Liu said seriously, "You are not planning to get married anyway. How bad is it to be alone for the rest of your life? I think you should not go to an orphanage to adopt a child. I'll ask Fade Chen to help... Hey? Don't run! Slow down! I'm serious..."

Looking at Shu Chang running away, Liu Yifei could not hide her regret.

"I don't know what Shu Chang has to be shy about?"

Chen Fei, who was watching the whole process, was stunned!

"You...are you having a fever? What nonsense are you talking about?"

He couldn't help but reached out and touched Liu Yifei's forehead, but didn't feel anything unusual.

"I don't have a fever." Liu Yifei said as she tidied up the bed sheets that Shu Chang had messed up, "I'm really serious. How pitiful is she to be all alone? She might as well be a concubine."

Chen Fei inexplicably felt that his CPU was overheating.

Was it because she had a fever that caused hallucinations? Or was it that as a pregnant woman, Liu Yifei had an independent thinking strategy?
"I heard that the time when husbands are most likely to cheat is during the 10 months when their wives are pregnant. Many husbands can't hold back and can't withstand the temptation from outside, so they are most likely to cheat..."

Even before she lay down in bed, Liu Yifei was still nagging: "So, in order to avoid this kind of situation and to keep our relationship stable, finding a maid is the best solution."

Chen Fei couldn't help but touch her head again.

"You don't have a fever?"

Liu Yifei pulled his hand down and continued to mutter, "I have learned about your past love history. There are no secrets in Hollywood. Do you want me to count them for you? Let's start with the four little beauties?"

"Ahem! Okay, let's go to bed. We have to get up early tomorrow."

Chen Fei sealed her mouth forcefully, preventing her from continuing.

Perhaps because of the excessive secretion of progesterone, Liu Yifei's mood swings were very drastic.

She turned around, hugged Chen Fei, and whispered in his ear: "Life is too long, I can't be sure that you will not do something similar to what Xu Ke did when he abandoned Shi Nansheng.

I'm going to tie you up tightly! Hehe, find a few teammates and tie you up together! You won't be able to break free in this life!

But... isn't this a bad idea? I don't want to share your love with others, woooo... when I get old, not pretty anymore, and my figure is out of shape... you won't abandon me, right?"

……

At 12 a.m. on December 8, Chen Fei boarded a plane to Los Angeles.

He didn't sleep well last night because of Liu Yifei's torment, so as soon as the plane entered the stratosphere, he went to the bed in the inner room to catch up on his sleep.

At the same time, the premiere of "Youth" officially kicked off in China.

However, what makes Feng Xiaogang a little depressed is that the hot search topics on major platforms today are not monopolized by "Youth", because "Dying to Survive" on the other hand is still very popular!
"After one week of release, the reality-themed movie "Dying to Survive" directed by Chen Fei has grossed a total of 23.99 billion yuan at the box office!"

“电影局发布通告，影片《我不是药神》已成功通过密钥延期申请，该片下映时间将由2018年1月1日延期至2月1日23时59分。”

"Dying to Survive has confirmed that it will participate in the 21st Shanghai International Film Festival awards selection next year..."

The Lunar New Year holiday season has just begun, and the first key extension was delegated by the Film Bureau to "Dying to Survive". This will undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on the producers of many films that will be released later!

Feng Xiaogang, who had been a little lax, suddenly became more vigilant again.

He has decided that after the premiere of "Youth", he must launch a new round of sprint-style publicity and roadshow activities in the next few days, in order to gain a final wave of traffic and popularity.

But some things are always so "mysterious".

It seems that the above is suppressing the popularity of "Youth" intentionally or unintentionally.

The premiere of Youth had just ended in the morning, and just as Huayi was preparing to launch a large-scale publicity campaign, a new announcement suddenly came out just after 12 o'clock:

“The Cyberspace Administration of China: In order to actively spread social responsibility and create a healthy and positive mainstream public opinion environment…We hereby order Weibo, Toutiao, Tencent, Yidian Zixun, Youku, NetEase, Baidu and other websites to earnestly fulfill their main responsibilities and strengthen user account management.

The websites that were summoned should close illegal accounts such as "Fengxing Studio Official Weibo", "All Star Detectives", "Zhuo Wei, the No. 1 Paparazzi in China", "Famous Detective Zhao Wuer", "Entertainment Circle Revealed" in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, website content management regulations and user agreements..."

With the release of this announcement, the entire entertainment industry went completely "crazy" for a while!
